11 Wendell Street, Norman Park

A serious contender for one of Brisbane's better residences. Poised on an elevated corner along a bend in the Brisbane River, sharing an exclusive no-through road with some of Queensland's most successful business figures, is this contemporary prestige property. Designed by award-winning firm Blueprint Architects, the team behind some of the state's most impressive residential and commercial dwellings, and built with superior craftsmanship by luxury master builders MCD Construction. The discreet cascading exterior, of clean lines and muted tones, conceals an exquisite interior shaped to embrace exceptional views sweeping across two reaches of the river from Kangaroo Point, across the CBD and Story Bridge, New Farm, Teneriffe, Newstead and beyond. Supremely functional, practical and ultimately comfortable where places of retreat are separated from the expansive open-plan living/dining/outdoor entertaining level featuring covered terraces with a BBQ kitchen, a heated swimming pool, poolside lounge, and outdoor shower. At the pinnacle of this masterful layout is a private parents' level complete with a rooftop terrace, fireplace, study with built-in desk, double-vanity marble composite ensuite, and dressing room. Out of sight but not out of touch, as an internal lift and staircase connect this oasis to the rest of the home. There are four further bedrooms, or three plus a home office with separate access, a media lounge with console, two courtyards to the rear, a grass terrace, and a secure double garage with additional driveway parking. Reflecting the remarkable quality and standards of this residence is the investment in inclusions such as the floor-to-ceiling glass, two-way gas fireplace, large butler's pantry, premium appliances, ducted air-conditioning, spotted gum and polished concrete flooring, remote-controlled external and internal blinds, and auto-irrigated and auto-lit landscape. In an outstanding riverside location, offering easy access to Bulimba's Oxford Street, the Gabba precinct, Kangaroo Point, South Bank and the CBD, as well as conveniently linking with major connections to coastal destinations.
